A. Lange and Sohne 463.178 Odysseus Chronograph SS Black Dial 2024

The A. Lange and Sohne Odysseus Chronograph 463.178 represents a major milestone in Saxon horology, introducing the first self-winding chronograph movement in the Odysseus collection and the Lange catalog. Limited to just 100 pieces, this reference debuted in 2023 and immediately stood out for its sophisticated engineering and design. The robust 42.5mm stainless steel case, paired with an elegant black dial featuring signature outsized day and date windows, offers a modern, sport-elegant take unique within the traditionally dress-focused Lange stable. The new automatic chronograph caliber L156.1 encapsulates Lange’s technical prowess, with a central minute totalizer and a reset-to-zero mechanism that is both functional and visually distinctive. Collectors will appreciate the integrated chronograph architecture, limited edition status, and nuanced finishing that are hallmarks of the brand. Rated to 120 meters, this is also one of the rare water-resistant steel sport watches from a house better known for gold and platinum masterpieces. Sapphire display case back reveals the depth of finishing that makes these movements world-class. Its exclusivity, technical advances, and clear design ethos make the 463.178 highly coveted among contemporary haute horlogerie releases. Like New with A. Lange and Sohne box and papers 2024.
